Jake, this is the shape of my plugs after about 10 min of idling.
1.7 (now a 2056), dual webers, 009 dizzy (PO), my jets are Main 115, Idle 50 not sure the air, Idle screw is screwed as far in as possible just to keep car idling (still the idle falls off and stalls), reving the engine smoke come out exhaust (new rings over the winter and never had the car on the road). I havent been able to time it, cant get a steady idle. Tried this weekend to take it for a ride and hopefully seat the rings, made it about 200 yards and it stalled (bucked and jerked the whole way). Had to pull plugs and clean them to get car started again, and put it back in the garage. Any ideas?
